Behind this piece: On this day of the Ninth of Av, we mourn not only the destruction of the first and second Temples in Jerusalem, but everything that has been destroyed--and continues to be destroyed--due to sinat chinam, senseless hatred.In Eicha, Lamentations, we read,ק֣וּמִי ׀ רֹ֣נִּי בַלַּ֗יְלָה לְרֹאשׁ֙ אַשְׁמֻר֔וֹת שִׁפְכִ֤י כַמַּ֙יִם֙ לִבֵּ֔ךְ נֹ֖כַח פְּנֵ֣י אֲדֹנָ֑יRise up! Cry out in the night at the beginning of the watches. Pour out your heart like water in the presence of G!d.Surrounded by descriptions of the horrors in Jerusalem after the destruction of the Temple, this verse stands out as prescriptive. In times of overwhelming darkness, instead of withdrawing into further sleep, we are instructed to get up and face, perhaps even embrace, the darkness, pouring out our hearts before G!d.In this time of darkness, what might it look like to pour out your heart before G!d?
